RRB Starts Group D Exams as NTPC UG CBT-2 Slated for December 20

Mandatory Aadhaar biometrics at centres signals a tighter, merit-only process, with city slips about ten days ahead plus e-call letters four days prior.

Overview

  • Computer-based Group D tests run from November 27, 2025 to January 16, 2026, with admit cards activated on regional RRB websites.
  • NTPC Undergraduate stage 2 is fixed for December 20, with exam-city and date intimation expected roughly December 9–10 and e-call letters four days before the test.
  • Aadhaar-linked biometric authentication is compulsory at entry, requiring an original Aadhaar or e-verified printout and an unlocked UIDAI status for smooth verification.
  • RRB reiterates lifetime debarment for cheating or impersonation, bans electronics and metallic items at centres, applies normalisation across shifts, and deducts one-third marks for wrong answers.
  • Eligible SC/ST applicants who opted receive free sleeper-class travel authority with e-call letters, while reports note differing NTPC UG vacancy totals (3,445 vs 3,058) and a reported application deadline extension to December 4.
